Update Preview for v0.2.0 (Patreon)

(Content Warning: this post depicts sexual content.)  

Version 0.2.0 - Consequences will go live for patrons sometime on August 27th. Other users will have to wait until September 3rd at the earliest. This update features new story and side content, a new area (or so), several new activities, and dozens of new events and scenes. There are also new advancement and progression elements, including new perks, traits, abilities, and potion recipes. 

New Story and Side Content 

The beginning portion of Chapter 1 is written and a significant portion of it is playable. It will introduce players to the new consequences and notoriety mechanics and hopefully provide some entertainment and titillation in its own right. 

There are also two optional requests to tackle. Requests are basically side quests, and completing one grants a special trait and may also unlock new activities or abilities, so it's recommended you seek them out. 

In one request, Roland is losing customers at the tavern, and wants your help figuring out why. In the other, you come across another woman who seems to be a succubus while exploring, but something seems a bit off about her. 

New Activities, Actions, and Abilities 

You can now travel to uptown, which has its own version of prostitution that is riskier in terms of notoriety but pays better. There's also a character in uptown with whom you can trade a certain type of potion, though you will need to unlock this. Uptown also has a much larger law enforcement presence, and you can be hassled and even arrested if you aren't careful. Whether this will happen, and the chances it will happen, are based on your character's notoriety, which you can check on in the character menu. 

If you're arrested, you can choose to serve a shorter sentence in the stocks, but it may not be safe. You can serve a longer sentence in the dungeon, where some unique activities and events await you. 

If you help Roland with his request, you'll unlock a new activity at the tavern to earn a small amount of money, gain a decent amount of perk progression, and stave off hunger without gaining notoriety. If you complete the other request you'll gain a powerful new ability that will help you leverage your alchemy in more situations. 

With the right perk, the player character can now also feed off of the semen on her body if she's hungry enough. Unlocking certain additional perks may allow her to do so more often. 

Finally, you can unlock two new actions for oral sex encounters, a handjob action and a paizuri action. You will need the appropriate perks. The new activity in the tavern is a decent place to unlock these perks. 

New Potions, Traits, and Perks 

There are six new potions in this update. (To unlock them more quickly, you can purchase the "Alchemist" line of traits.)

There are two new lines of traits, with a total of seven traits altogether. This does not count the two new special traits earned from completing requests. 

There are three new perks in this version. One unlocks one of the new oral sex actions (the other oral sex action is unlocked by an old perk). One unlocks the ability for the player character to feed off of the semen on her own body. The third does not have an effect yet. 

Other Stuff 

I've added a means of hiding certain content to the game. See the Config menu to set it up. Right now, urination/watersports content and lesbian content can be hidden. The offending text is blurred. By default you can click to reveal it, but you can shut this feature off if you want. I will add more content categories to this system as time goes on and continue to iterate on it.

In addition, several balance changes were made and several bugs were fixed. The game also features completely different music in this version, and some minor adjustments to the prologue were made. You don't need to replay the prologue, these changes were largely under the hood. 

When you load a saved game from v0.1.x up in v0.2.x it's saved data will patched to make it compatible with the updated content. This may make the saved game no longer work in older versions of the game. In general, saved games from newer versions will be incompatible with older game versions. Most games are like this, but I figured I'd mention it just in case. 

A Note About Devlog #2

Just a heads up, the second devlog entry has been completed! I'm currently proofreading it, but it should go up in a few days.
